Experience I a co-chaired a Computer User group with 100 members, came in contact with knowlegable users on a variety of subjects. Have just recently started a Computer User Group in a new Over 55 Active Adult Community and presently have 220 members. We have had numerous virus problems which we have learned to irradicate. It was quite a challenge, but we helped them. I have used dialup, cable broadband, DSL and currently using FiberOPtic High Speed Broadband.I am also Computer Tutor. I have NO experience with MAC computers.
Question Recently I updated to Netscape 7.2, and found a problem trying to delete groups of addresses in the History listing. In previous versions, one could select one entry, then from the pulldown menu click on Edit ... Delete entire domain xxxx. When I try this now, nothing gets erased. (The option is NOT grayed out.) I am running Windos 2000 Professional
Answer Joe, please explain. Are you in Netscape Address Book?
or in the mail section. Do you have a Folder named Collected addresses??
Here is info I found on HISTORY in Netscape Help.
Navigator Preferences - History
This section describes how to use the History preferences panel. If you're not already viewing it, follow these steps:
1. Open the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
2. Under the Navigator category, click History. (If no subcategories are visible, double-click Navigator to expand the list.)
The History preferences panel allows you to configure three history settings on Navigator.
* Browsing History:
o Remember visited pages for the last __ days: Type the number of days you want Netscape to keep track of the web pages you have previously visited. For example, if you set this number to 10 days, pages 10 days old or less will be kept in the history list.
o Clear History: Click this to delete the list of sites visited.
* Location Bar History:
o Clear Location Bar: Click this to clear the list of sites in the Location bar menu.
Is this the area you are asking about?
